My favorite thing about this knife is that I was reading the description of it on SLT's website to my wife and when I got to the part where they talk about the specially designed "ridge deflector" she just blurted out "What the hell does it deflect, photon torpedoes?" It also seems that Wusthof has keyed in on the awesome power of speed holes as well now.

Here's the other "set" from that site: complete with ginsu-serrated sword. Marketers have been playing up the "made by a swordsmith" angle for a while when selling j-knives, I guess someone figured they could just make them look like (cartoon) swords and have them made by some kid in China.

The designer should use one for hara kiri. Soon. What was the inspiration....a cricket bat?

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. - Lawrence
